Duplicati — a backup client with a friendly web UI that makes encrypted, incremental, deduplicated backups to local disk or cloud storage (S3, B2, WebDAV, SFTP, and many more), on a schedule. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service with config, source, and backup volumes.
Needs nomad-pack on PATH. The script only adds the nomploy registry and runs this pack.

Set a UI password, then create a backup job: pick a destination, select /source, set a schedule and a strong
backup passphrase. Keep that passphrase and settings_encryption_key safe — they're required to restore. A GUI
alternative to the restic-based backrest pack. Front the UI with a reverse proxy for TLS.
